Saving a Document


To save a document, choose Save from the File menu. If you are saving a new document, the program will ask you to specify a name for it and a location where to save it.

To save a document, which has already been saved, under a new filename, choose Save As… from the File menu.

You can also save a document as a template so it can be used later as a base for new documents. To do this, choose Save As Template… from the File menu. For more information, see Using Templates.

In some cases you may need to save your document in PDF, TIFF or JPEG file formats rather than the original Disc Cover format. To do this, use the File > Export… menu command. This may be helpful if you need to show your design to somebody or to order printing in a print shop.

You can also save your document as a PDF by clicking the PDF button in the system print dialog.

Note: Documents exported to graphic file formats (such as TIFF and PDF) cannot be edited later like documents in the Disc Cover file format.

To decrease the size of Disc Cover documents for sending by e-mail or other purposes, archive them. To do this, select a document in Finder and choose File > Compress.

 

Autosaving

You can specify whether the program automatically saves modified documents. This function is useful to avoid data loss in case of power shortage or problems with software.

In the program Preferences, you can activate or deactivate autosaving a copy of your document. We recommend doing this in case of power failure or other unforeseen problems.
